All you have to do is ask..... - a photo on Flickriver

2016-03-25 9252-CR2-L1T1

That's all it takes sometimes to get a street portrait shot. Just ask....these ladies were more than willing to smile for the camera and ham it up a bit.

I have been watching some videos about street portraits and how to get shots of people like this. Basically all you have to do is ask, it can be awkward at first but you get used to it I guess. I need to go out and get more of these as it was a lot of fun. We need to get a group together and make a challenge of getting street portraits in a certain time period. I might have to work on this idea.

Here is the video I was watching yesterday about getting street portraits - www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAsA97YcCBI

Thanks again ladies for your time and letting me snap a couple shots of the both of you.
